Message:: [QUOTE="Clinker, post: 1213691, member: 6229"]As you know the United States is honoring our Nation's Presidents by issuing $1 circulating coins featuring their images in the order that they served in office. The United States Mint issues four Presidential $1 Coins each year. Each coin has a common reverse design featuring a striking rendition of the Statue of Liberty. (US Mint coin image):　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=Reverse" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=Reverse" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=Reverse</a>　　These $1 Presidential coins feature large, dramatic artwork, as well as edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting, or issuance, E PLURIBUS UNUM and the mint mark. In 2009 "In God We Trust" was moved from the edge to the face of the coin. The size, weight and metal composition of the Presidential $1 Coins are identical to that of the Sacagawea Golden Dollar and the Native American $1 coin.　　You may even know the United States is honoring our Nation's first spouses by issuing one-half ounce $10 gold bullion coins featuring their images in the order that they served as first spouse. The United States Mint issues First Spouse Gold Coins on the same schedule as the Presidential $1 Coins.　　You probably know that the First Spouse Gold Coin obverses (heads sides) feature portraits of the first spouses, their names, the order and years of their term as first spouse, the year of minting or issuance, IN GOD WE TRUST and LIBERTY. Each coin has a unique reverse (tails) design featuring an image emblematic of that spouse's life and work, as well as the inscriptions THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, $10, 1/2 OZ. and .9999 FINE GOLD.　　Since the First Spouse Gold Coins are issued concurrently with the Presidential Golden $1 coins, what is issued when the reigning president was unmarried at the time of his presidential term?　　When a President served without a first spouse, as did James Buchanan, a gold coin is issued bearing an obverse image emblematic of Liberty as depicted on a circulating coin of that era, and a reverse image emblematic of a theme of that President's life. The coin is inscribed with the years and order of that President's term. So far 4 Non Spouse Gold Coins have been issued.　　Remember so far four non spouse $10 Gold bullion coins have been issued. I will present you with a link to an image of each non spouse Presidential Dollar followed by a link to the image of the First Spouse Gold coin bearing a Liberty design featured on a coin minted during the non souse president's tenure. Presidential Dollar images and the Liberty (non Spouse) coin photos are US mint images (to see reverse on Liberty design move cursor to edge of image). A third link is to an image of a coin minted during the non espousal President's term of office:　　THOMAS JEFFERSON - 1801-1809:　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=Jefferson" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=Jefferson" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=Jefferson</a>　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=Jefferson" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=Jefferson" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=Jefferson</a>　　<a href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_cs-us.php?image=nmc3/US-33&desc=U.S.A.1/2Centkm33(1800-1808)DrapedBust&src=JasonBrown&query=halfcentdraped" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_cs-us.php?image=nmc3/US-33&desc=U.S.A.1/2Centkm33(1800-1808)DrapedBust&src=JasonBrown&query=halfcentdraped" rel="nofollow">http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_cs-us.php?image=nmc3/US-33&desc=U.S.A.1/2Centkm33(1800-1808)DrapedBust&src=JasonBrown&query=halfcentdraped</a>　　ANDREW JACKSON - 1829-1837:　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=AJackson" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=AJackson" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=AJackson</a>　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=Jackson" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=Jackson" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=Jackson</a>　　<a href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_us.php?image=img4/US-50c807&desc=U.S.A.HalfDollarkm37(1807-1836)LibertyCapletterededge50C.&query=halfcap" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_us.php?image=img4/US-50c807&desc=U.S.A.HalfDollarkm37(1807-1836)LibertyCapletterededge50C.&query=halfcap" rel="nofollow">http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_us.php?image=img4/US-50c807&desc=U.S.A.HalfDollarkm37(1807-1836)LibertyCapletterededge50C.&query=halfcap</a>　　MARTEN VAN BUREN - 1837-1841:　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=VanBuren" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=VanBuren" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=VanBuren</a>　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=VanBuren" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=VanBuren" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/index.cfm?action=VanBuren</a>　　<a href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_cs-us.php?image=nmc3/US-61&desc=U.S.A.TenCentskm61(1837-1838)SeatedLibertynostars&src=JasonBrown&query=dimeseated" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_cs-us.php?image=nmc3/US-61&desc=U.S.A.TenCentskm61(1837-1838)SeatedLibertynostars&src=JasonBrown&query=dimeseated" rel="nofollow">http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_cs-us.php?image=nmc3/US-61&desc=U.S.A.TenCentskm61(1837-1838)SeatedLibertynostars&src=JasonBrown&query=dimeseated</a>　　JAMES BUCHANAN - 1857-1861　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=JBuchanan" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=JBuchanan" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm?action=JBuchanan</a>　　<a href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/?action=2010fs&spouse=buchananLiberty" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/?action=2010fs&spouse=buchananLiberty" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/firstSpouse/?action=2010fs&spouse=buchananLiberty</a>　　<a href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_us.php?image=nmc3/US-72&desc=U.S.A.2.5Dollars(1840-1907)CoronetQtrEagle&query=golddollarsCoronet" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_us.php?image=nmc3/US-72&desc=U.S.A.2.5Dollars(1840-1907)CoronetQtrEagle&query=golddollarsCoronet" rel="nofollow">http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/coine_us.php?image=nmc3/US-72&desc=U.S.A.2.5Dollars(1840-1907)CoronetQtrEagle&query=golddollarsCoronet</a>　　Did you know?　　Clinker[/QUOTE]
